Multiple Time-Frame Analysis
Multiple timeframes analysis equals using 2 chart timeframes to trade Silver Trading - a shorter one used for trading & a longer one to check the Silver trend.
Since it's always good to follow the trend, in Multiple Time Frame Analysis, longer timeframe gives us the direction of the long term trend.
If the long term market direction supports the direction of the smaller chart timeframe then the probability of being profitable is greatly increased. This is because even if you make a mistake the long term silver trend will eventually save you. Also if you trade with the direction of xagusd market, then mostly you will be on the winning side, this is what this analysis is all about.
